2012 Map of Burbank

About this map

Burbank and the surrounding San Fernando Valley neighborhoods are depicted here at the height of their twentieth-century development. The landscape is defined by its deep ties to the entertainment industry, with the major campuses of Disney Studios, Warner Brothers Studios, and NBC-TV Studios clustered near the Los Angeles River. This map provides a clear view of the urban grid as it meets the southern edge of the Verdugo Mountains, where numerous canyons like Wildwood Canyon and Sunset Canyon transition from residential streets into protected parklands. Notable for genealogists and local historians, the sheet identifies several major interments including Forest Lawn Memorial Park and Valhalla Memorial Park. Significant regional infrastructure, from the Bob Hope Airport to the complex interchanges of I-5 and Ca-134, illustrates the transportation network that connects Universal City and Glendale to the heart of Los Angeles.
